Bronx Pizza

Frommer's Review

No one is going to confuse San Diego with New York, until perhaps you walk -- make that cram -- into Bronx Pizza in Hillcrest. With pictures of boxers on the walls, this tiny pizzeria has seven tables inside and five outside, and serves up what are arguably San Diego's best pies. Other than calzones, that's all it makes; no salads, no chicken wings. And if there's a line out the door (which is a pretty frequent occurrence), don't hesitate when you get to the counter to order, or you may suddenly find yourself living out the Seinfeld Soup Nazi episode. These guys will definitely drop a little New York attitude on you. Choices are simple, though. It's all thin-crust, 18-inch pies, or by the slice, with straightforward toppings (although Bronx Pizza has made concessions to the locals by including ingredients like marinated artichokes and pesto). Try one of the white stone pizzas, which have a base of mozzarella, ricotta, Parmesan, and garlic.
